Toby Toy Store has noticed the following items that need to be considered for its income statement for the year ended December 31, 2019: Commissions of $3,000 for salespeople who made sales in December will be paid on January 3, 2020.

The phone bill of $400 for December was received and will be paid on January 20, 2020.
The store rent of $2,000 for January 2020 was paid on December 28, 2019.
At the beginning of November, Toby paid $1,500 for advertising in a monthly magazine that is distributed in November and December of 2019, and January of 2020.

What is the proper amount of expenses to be included in the income statement for the year?
a. $4,400.
b. $6,900.
c. $6,400.
d. $5,900.

Answer: $4400

Explanation:

The proper amount of expenses to be included in the income statement for the year will be calculated as:

Commissions for salespeople who made sales in December = $3000

Add: Phone bill = $400

Add: Advertisement = $1000

Total expense = $3000 + $400 + $1000 = $4400

N.B: The commission and telephone charge were incurred in December 2019 and should be added.

The store rent of $2,000 for January 2020 was paid on December 28, 2019. This won't be added since it was for 2020.

Advertisiment of $1,500 was paid for November 2019, December 2019 and January 2020. We are concerned with that of November and December 2019. This will be: $1500 × 2/3 = $1000

Scenario
You are the marketing analyst for Better Beans Coffee Company, which has nine stores nationwide. The company wants to build two additional stores. Your executive team has decided that rather than expand to new markets, they want Better Beans to begin opening additional stores in existing markets. While this will create cannibalization in the short term, it will create marketing and operating efficiencies as more stores are opened in each city.
As a scrappy and growing startup, Better Beans does not yet have access to complex marketing analytics software. Fortunately, you are an expert at gathering market data from inside and outside the company and crunching accurate numbers with nothing more than an Excel spreadsheet.
You have been tasked with calculating the two best markets for opening an additional store. You have already calculated two things that allow you to estimate the net additional revenue in each market ueafter adding a second store:
Revenue for a second store in each market
The revenue lost from estimated cannibalization at the first store.
Important note: Due to the high investments already made in existing stores, management has specified that any market where cannibalization is 25% or more should be eliminated from consideration.
Ignoring cannibalization rates for now, what two markets have the highest net revenue increases when adding a second store?
A. Dallas and Portland
B. Los Angeles and Orlando
C. Chicago and Dallas
D. Orlando and Dallas
E. Los Angeles and Portland
What two markets should be chosen for a second store based on management's criteria that the cannibalization rate for the existing store should be less than 25%? Note: Cannibalization rates and net revenue increase amounts need to be considered when making this determination.
